Rich with exterior features, and convenient to everything! With a generous slate of exterior amenities--pressure-treated wood deck, brick patio, pavilion gazebo, and the luxury of home-grown citrus fruits--there's no getting bored in the yard of this appealing ranch home, which is located in the Mar Vista Heights area of Whittier. Rear fencing of the carefully landscaped yard adds a privacy element to the enjoyment of these features. With two open-air porches, you're sure to find outdoor sunlight or shade as needed. As you step inside, the interior spaces of this home seamlessly complement the outdoor amenities. Everyday luxuries include maple flooring throughout, stylish lighting, sunlight, neutral colors, forced air heating and A/C, and a gas fireplace in the living room. Flowing like easy conversation into the dining room, patio, and backyard, the kitchen is large enough to accommodate dinner guests who wander in to talk. A lot of great meals are going to be created on these exceptional granite countertops. Surfaces are in the popular peninsula layout, which creates double-sided workspace for food prep. The scene is warm beneath natural light. The ensuite primary bedroom is well-designed and peaceful. In addition to the convenience of the private bathroom (separate tub), you will find ample closet space to let your wardrobe breathe. Offering peacefulness, ample closet space, and conveniently located on the ground floor, the remaining bedrooms are ready for your decorative touch. An attached garage makes unloading the groceries easy. This one is available for its original purpose, or you can get creative by treating it as additional flex space. Within comfortable pedestrian range of the natural beauty of Michigan Park, and only a short drive from the pleasant bustle of town, you'll spend more time at destinations (or at home) than in transit. Pedestrian range radius also includes Ocean View School.
